The December issue of Brides Magazine showed an enchanting editorial surely to inspire every modern bride, and even bridesmaid, captured by photographer Amber Gray. This magical spread starring the princess-perfect model, Valerya, unfolds while taking us into a fantasy wonderland complete with floor-sweeping bridal gowns, lush and luxurious gardens, fantastical characters, castle-inspired indoors and golden glitter Christian Louboutin pigalle pump shoes. Le sigh!

With the help of hair stylist Anthony Nadler, Valerya was transformed into a true magical being with her whimsical oversized bouffant and flirty-fantasy tiered up-dos. Styled by Rachel Leonard, this editorial takes us through a charming and imaginative narrative, told with lace, ruffles, feathers and sparkle.
